You forgot to mention Tico's drumsticks. Which are his Ahead signature series :)

I couldn't see them on my video from the balcony :)
Dave

Jon played his Takamine on Bad name??? weird....

Dave, is this really called a birdhouse and is it an actual musical instrument or have you just made this name up?.....lol. I've never heard of this or seen one before, not that that's anything to go by because I'm not very knowledgeable about these things.

We have this exact same box on a tree at the lake and it's called a duck box. (and it works, the ducks come back to it every spring :p)

My wife made up the name when we first saw it in Detroit, it really is a percussion instrument, looks to be hand carved from a single piece of wood, with different thicknesses on different surfaces for different tones.
If it were really a birdhouse, the hole is bid enough for vultures to use it :)
Dave

I think Julie is definitely on to something because I'm pretty sure Tico got that thing from Ducks Unlimited. ;)

It's called a cajón.

Thanks, I googled "percussion instruments" but couldn't find a thing.
